Pattern Description from Interweave Knits, Summer 2006:Not just for birthdays, Nicholette Hoyer’s party crowns are the perfect dress-up headwear for royal princes and princesses. They’re elegant, soft, and glittery, and they fit as comfortably as a knitted headband. Embellish the points with sequins, buttons, embroidery, feathers, or whatever your little ones can imagine.

Photos of these projects are on pages 36-37 of Interweave Knits, Summer 2006. The patterns are NOT in the magazine, however. Readers are instructed to find instructions for these ties on the website www.interweaveknits.com or send a long, self-addressed, stamped envelope to Interweave Press, 201 East 4th St., Loveland, CO 80537 and request a specific pattern.
